Content Marketing/eCommerce:

The Importance of Content in Commerce

Earning sales online can often prove challenging, with clumsy sites and clumsier techniques undoing even the most innovative products. Strong content marketing is instead needed to generate interest... and profits.

Content marketing, simply defined, is the use of social media--such as blogs, ebooks, videos, networks and more--to attract a targeted audience. It details specific products or events but does not make a direct call for purchasing. Instead it establishes a rapport between companies and consumers, offering relevant information and encouraging readers to seek out further posts. It’s meant to intrigue, not overwhelm. It increases brand awareness, as well as improves overall search engine rankings.

And, when done successfully, it can invigorate the eCommerce market.

The value of content marketing is how it strengthens a site’s overall appeal. It blends information with presentation, making it accessible to all readers. This leads to an increase in traffic, which can then lead to an increase in sales.
